Milo and Charmin- I like when you use the........... and stuff. It makes for an
easier read. I don't think that's a bad habit. And I say flirt all you want. That's entertainment

I would have to say either speaking my mind gets me into the most trouble or my outgoing nature.  it's a tough choice.   i speeak my mind at work, in bars, to whoever.  if i have an opinion on something (and i ALWAYS do) i'll tell you about it.

as for my outgoing nature, it is sometimes misconstrued as trying to pick someone up even if her boyfriend (husband, father other male figure) is right beside her.  i have been accused of being way too playful with the oppposite sex.  dang, i guess if i gotta be accused of something, that's not the worst thing.

Being too outgoing and nice...Ditto to what you said, I feel your pain...I get that all the time too, not trying to pick anyone up.  Just being friendly.

I have a rather large personality. well just the girth that is.

I am qiuet and reserved, yet forceful and brash when needed. Calm and respectful, yet erratic and bold when the situation renders itself. I think everyone has their good and bad sides. We are all human and emotions sometimes get the better of us all.

It's kind've interesting, (and I'm hoping this is more of a seasonal type change as opposed to mid-life change). I was always a confrontationalist. Yet recently I've been shying away more from confrontation, and have become more passive.  I don't know why, it just seems I don't have "fight" left in me...

Is this common when people start to get "up there" in years ?

Prior to coming here last January, I gave up Moderating several AOL debate forums.  Couldn't deal with arguing, and confrontation for some reason anymore....   I'm not happy about it, just seemed to happen though.

Some "fights" loose their spunk and flair. Just like patience being one of the "virtues", so is understanding, caring,  blah, blah,--blech.

I think after quite a few years of the Internet, a person just get's "blown out". Between that and real life issues you are correct,  I pay a monthly fee for an account and opt to utilize the time having fun, and enjoying myself.. Positive emotion is much more rewarding, and it just feel's better...

The internet is a place that a person has to catch onto..  It's not obvious at first how to relate to people on the net... I believe it takes some getting used to..  I was really really dumb around 1994 when I first got an AOL account,  I thought all those IM's from girls like Amber, and Tiffany were actually women that wanted to get to know me, and talk to me...I'd keep IM'ing them back, and talking about fairweather type stuff too....  (this was prior to bot's)..  I was pretty shocked when they started telling me they "only like guys who want to spend some money on them"

Not to mention how many times I fell for the "Greetings from America Online Billing, due to a recent glitch in our computer system we lost info on your account, please send the following info"

It's just like watching the news-what? no news is newsworthy unless it's bad news? Too much pain and drama. Rather see more positive things, but...
It's like remembering when you are younger and how one used to (I think in most cases) never lock their doors (Maybe). Too much has changed

It's true,  depending on where a person lived in the suburbs, or especially rural area's I suppose.... leaving door's unlocked wasn't taking a rediculous risk like it is today.  Of course in those days elementary school kids were able to hitch a ride, there weren't random drive-by shootings..  Things were abit safer.

Some people out there try to be what they think others might be "looking" for and that's the scary part. When you look for trouble- you usually get that and much more than you bargain for. As for the money issue...guys can do that to women too. Thinking that she makes more money, has a better career, ect.  instant target for trouble.

Steven ~ Are you playing a lot in bands these days.  Enough to live off of?

Do you wish you were forceful and brash more often?  Or are you content being quiet and reserved for the most part?  Quiet and reserved is my average anyway.

Don, No.. I have a real job... Haven't done much with the music lately.

No No,  what I was saying is new members on AOL, that don't have sufficient spam blocking mechs get solicited by girls that run a phone business   I thought the girls really liked me, and I started yacking with them.

Yep, a guy would catch on quick in the old days when the gals sat behind a window and you had to keep dropping quarters in the slot to keep the window shade from dropping....This new 900 phone sex stuff takes some getting used to!
